    Small private plane advised not to travel due to the storm incoming.

    Its not like hes coming in on an a380. Bit of a delay, nothing to worry about imo

    They're highly insured and unable to fly in adverse conditions, especially wind.

    They suffer much more than commercial flights due to their weight, etc ...

    ... we used to have problems getting flights into Nice, especially from the UK.

    They're also disproportionately involved in conspiracy theories, used by the Mafia to dump bodies and regularly vanish in the Bermuda Triangle.

    Home of the Irish coffee and just down the road from Bunratty. I love Shannon as a gateway to county Clare.

    I dread to think how much the insurance costs let alone the restrictions on these private jets.

    Passengers worth millions, the are probably more regulated than an easy jet flight to malaga

    The plane departed from Salzburg to Barca and is now going back to Salzburg so it could just be returning back to the depot?

    I think after the Emiliano Sala incident most clubs won’t even risk it if there’s a hint of a storm

    Once they're airborne they're travelling fast enough to create their own 'airspace' ...

    ... the big problem is that you may arrive into weather conditions worse than expected and you have to significantly reduce your speed for landing.

    That's when things become very frightening <yikes>

    We’re all just speculating of course but I reckon if it was weather related, the club would have briefed the media as such.

    By this I mean somebody has told Keith that the flight was postponed but it’s still expected to go through. If it was a simple reason such as weather they’d surely have said.

    Completely off topic but interestingly and potentially annoyingly Bournemouth are playing in an official premier league friendly with names and numbers on back and they don’t have a solid back. Wonder if their stripes are deemed dark enough that they don’t need to?

    If the deal was off, they wouldn't have briefed that the deal was still going ahead.

    yeh I agree. I’m just saying I doubt it’s weather related. Will likely be a minor snag they sort out in a day or two

    Poor goldfish. Fair play. I wouldn’t want another Zouma situation.

    Oh aye, but when you are due to land in Dublin at 10pm, and land at Shannon at 11pm you might as well have landed after a zombie apocalypse. Not a soul in sight.

    One time there were three flights diverted. About 250 passengers dumped after 10 and not a hire car in sight. All Ryannair so they didnt give a shiny ****e. Eventually some poor lass turned up and said buses were being sorted. First one turned up was a 16 seater <laugh><laugh> There were two blokes scrapping like good uns over who should get on. I finally caught a commuter bus at about 4am and got to Dublin for breakfast and work <doh>

    Swimbladder can be treated if caught early mate. My source says Giui is an avid Ichthyophile.
